Prokofiev: Peter & The Wolf; Saint-Saëns / Bernstein Classical Review

Average Rating: (5 out of 5 stars) 5 stars

5 stars A Favorite!
Love the narration introducing each musical piece. I used it all week with several piano camp groups and the students really enjoyed it and learned a lot from it!

One of the top jazz singers of the 1990s, Roseanna Vitro is a versatile vocalist who is not afraid to take chances. On her Telarc debut, the personnel changes on many of the ten selections with the stars among the sidemen including pianist Ken Werner (Vitro's musical director), altoist Gary Bartz, trumpeter Tim Hagans, bassist Christian McBride and drummer Elvin Jones. Among the highpoints of the diverse repertoire are an adventurous "Freedom Jazz Dance," "Out of This World," "Long as You're Livin '," McCoy Tyner's "Passion Dance" and "Strollin"' (an adaptation of Charles Mingus' "Nostalgia in Times Square"). The only number that does not work is an over-the-top rendition of "More than You Know" that is overly complex; simplicity would have been much more effective. Otherwise this is a superior set by a very appealing singer. ~ Scott Yanow

Two recordings making their international CD premieres. Solti recorded both these popular Mendelssohn symphonies twice for Decca, and these are the earlier versions. The 'Scottish' dates from November 1952 and is in mono. The 'Italian' in stereo, recorded 1958, also with producer John Culshaw, is an absolute legend and has had many requests over the years for reissue.
